In the quiet village of Petwar in Haryana’s Hisar district, people fondly remember Justice Surya Kant, the newly appointed Chief Justice of India, not just as a jurist but as “Masterji ka beta” — the son of a teacher, a farmer’s child, and a poet at heart.

Born and raised in this humble village, Justice Surya Kant’s journey reflects deep roots in rural India. Known for his love of literature, he penned several poems during his college years — one of them, “Mendh Par Mitti Chadha Do” , became immensely popular and is still fondly recalled by those who knew him back then.
